Abstract
With pixel miniaturization, the performance of high-resolution quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) usually degrades. Considering the dimension of ultrasmall pixels, herein, a barrier architecture based on localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) that promotes the radiative recombination of neighboring quantum dots is rationally designed to improve the device performance. Au nanoparticles (NPs) are embedded in an insulating polymer to form a honeycomb-patterned barrier layer via the nanoimprint process. Each pixel fabricated in the void area (average diameter of 1.5 μm) of the barrier layer is surrounded by a number of LSPR-NPs to enhance the luminescence. The resultant green QLEDs with a resolution of 9027 pixels per inch show a maximum external quantum efficiency of 11.1%, a 42.8% enhancement compared to the control device. Additionally, the lifetime of high-resolution QLEDs is obviously improved by the LSPR effect.

Abstract
Truncated silver nanodecahedrons (TAgNDs) and truncated silver nanoplates (TAgNPs) fabricated via chemical reduction and photochemical methods were added to poly[3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene]:poly[styrenesulfonate] (PEDOT:PSS) as dopants to promote the luminous efficiency of blue-emitting polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). The differences in shape between TAgNDs and TAgNPs result in better dispersion of TAgNDs in PEDOT:PSS. Therefore, at an optimal doping concentration (the distributed density in the light-emitting region is 6.88 μg cm-2 for TAgNDs and 5.16 μg cm-2 for TAgNPs), the average current efficacy and maximum electroluminescence intensity enhancement factor for TAgND-doped PLEDs were 4.18 cd A-1 and 420%, respectively, which are much higher than those for TAgNP-doped PLEDs (1.83 cd A-1 and 200%) at a luminescence wavelength of 440 nm.

Abstract
Periodic aluminum-capped nanoslit arrays were produced on a polycarbonate plastic substrate by rapid hot embossing nanoimprint lithography and thermal evaporation, and they were used as a transparent window for blue-emitting polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). The external quantum efficiency of blue-emitting PLEDs was enhanced by the surface plasmon polaritons of the periodic aluminum-capped nanoslit arrays. A maximum current efficiency of 4.84 cd/A was achieved for the proposed PLED, which was over 2.2 times that of the reference PLED (2.18 cd/A). These results demonstrate that periodic nanostructure can assist in the simple and low-cost fabrication of high-performance polymer optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
High-efficiency blue CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) have been synthesized for display application with emission peak over 460 nm with the purpose of reducing the harmful effect of short-wavelength light to human eyes. To reach a better charge balance, different size ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized and electrical properties of ZnO NPs were analyzed. Quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) based on as-prepared blue QDs and optimized ZnO NPs have been successfully fabricated. Using small-size ZnO NPs, we have obtained a maximum current efficiency (CE) of 14.1 cd A-1 and a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 19.8% for QLEDs with an electroluminescence (EL) peak at 468 nm. To the best of our knowledge, this EQE is the highest value in comparison to the previous reports. The CIE 1931 color coordinates (0.136, 0.078) of this device are quite close to the standard (0.14, 0.08) of National Television System Committee (NTSC) 1953. The color saturation blue QLEDs show great promise for use in next-generation full-color displays.
